After the Dragon Boat Festival, the moxa grass at the door is ready for mosquitoes in summer. Prepare in advance

Just after the Dragon Boat Festival, I started a new job for a week! But the girl was surprised to find that there were mosquitoes! When I went home to see my mother during the Dragon Boat Festival, I found that there were a lot of moxa grass at home. I asked casually, what is this for? My mother said it was very useful, and the girl had to find out, so she had this article.

The efficacy of moxa grass

1. Moxa grass can repel mosquitoes

People who live in the countryside should know that after drying the moxa grass, it will be lit in a small basin. Moxa has an irritating temperature and has a stronger taste after lighting, which mosquitoes do not like, so it has the effect of repelling mosquitoes, while moxa has the effect of sterilization and disinfection, which is also good for the body.

two。 Boiled eggs with wormwood: relieving deficiency cold

Eggs boiled with moxa grass not only contain strong aroma of moxa grass, but also relieve deficiency cold, especially for abdominal pain and irregular menstruation caused by cold.

3. Moxa soak feet: relieve dark circles under the eyes and remove moisture

Dry moxa grass, grab a small handful directly, put it in hot water, and let it soak fully in water. Wait until the water temperature can adapt, just soak your feet.

Having said so much, what if there is no moxa grass at home:

Artemisia argyi is quite common in the wild. If people want to raise it in their own homes, they are mainly looking for plants to plant.

Some people want to buy some seeds of Artemisia argyi and sow them. In fact, this is not recommended, because most of the time, the seeds you buy are not necessarily the seeds that people want. You can go to the wild to dig up the roots of the plants and come back for pot planting. If you want to buy, it is more reliable to buy seedlings.

Plant moxa pot at home for maintenance, basically the same as growing flowers, because the plant of moxa grass is still relatively tall, so when choosing a flowerpot, you should pay attention to choosing a deeper flowerpot. Pay attention to watering when maintenance, generally see dry and wet, in the balcony breeding time also need to pay attention to light, summer shade.

Note: after all, moxa grass is grown in the wild, and the plant type is relatively tall, so it is necessary to hit the top in time.
